CHRISTINA BIANCO AS 19 MUSICAL DIVAS
Just wow. During a recent performance at the venue 54 Below in downtown Manhattan, stand-up comedian Christina Bianco performed a must-see rendition of the Bonnie Tyler classic “Total Eclipse of the Heart” as 19 different musical divas, including Adele, Cher, Britney Spears, and more. It has to be seen to be believed.
RACHEL YORK
Another talented impressionist is theater actress Rachel York. In this clip, watch her perform a stellar version of Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You,” as interpreted by Houston, Dolly Parton, Norah Jones, Christina Aguilera, and… even Elmo.
JIMMY FALLON
The Fresh Prince of late night comedy is a veritable vocal chameleon, and has unleashed a grab-bag of fantastic musical impressions, ranging from Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder to Justin Bieber. But we love his spot-on take on Neil Young the best.
